Author has written 14 stories for Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and Stargate: SG-1.

I've written snippets of fanfiction for myself, but I have never posted any before these.

I'm not a writer, by any means, and have only military and college writing experience.

What I post is for fun and to get my ideas off of post-it notes and scrap paper :)

The Middle of Nowhere and Stargate: Origin fics are written by my husband. He asked that I post it to see what people think, please review. Since he appears to be doing very well and wants to write more I might make him get his own account. We'll post here if that happens.

We are very pleased with the responses we've received and thank everyone who reviews. This has been a big surprise, as I've never considered myself a writer (does journaling count?).

Biometrics: mid-40's, AF veteran, Army spouse, 2 boys, 3 dogs, 2 cats. I work full time and have to deal with my husband and sons playing loud shooters, so my writing time is very limited.

Please leave a review and let me know what you like, what you don't and what you might like to see next. The reviews and favs are what keep us motivated and we really appreciate each and every one of them.

Shepard is back, but she's not who she used to be. It's all she can do to put one step in front of the other. Slow-moving Shoker. Starts very cannon, gradually opens up to examine Shepard's past and her relationship with Joker, as well as tighten up the scattered elements of the plot into a cohesive narrative.

Shepard knows that destroying the Reapers will kill her. Trouble is, she's never been good at dying. The explosion of dark energy from the Crucible thrusts Shepard into a totally different universe. Post ME3 ending, DA2 Act 2 beginning. Please note that this is not a FemShep/F!Hawke fic. THIS STORY HAS RECENTLY BEEN EDITED TO ALIGN WITH GAME CANON REVEALED IN DA:I

A young swede ends up in the Mass Effect universe, only to find that there is something very different about this particular universe. Rated M because, well, why limit oneself? Life is dirty, smutty and violent when lived to its fullest.

How ME3 might have happened if they'd stuck with the themes presented in the first two games, as perceived by This Arrogant Author. Featuring Rhi Shepard (still quite enamored of her pilot), and the expected host of allies, partners in crime, and assorted hangers-on. (sequel to A Star to Steer Her By).

An eighteen year old high school graduate gets dropped in Thedas out of the Fade. Wakes up to find that he's a mage. Follow him as he tries to survive in a hostile world that hates him for what he is while he works to gain control of his newfound abilities. Partial SI. Eventual pairings. DA2 with mention of Origins. Rating for language and violence.

Shepard wakes up in Ferelden after destroying the reapers. As she unravels where she is and how to get back home, she uncovers shocking truths about how she's already connected to Ferelden, the Blight, and the dark spawn.

Schizoid science student Noel wakes up in the body of a young servant in Highever. Ever one to 'go with the flow,' he spends his time writing blasphemous scientific texts, avoiding intimacy, and debating whether he cares enough to change the story.

Kaidan saved Shepard on Earth - Shepard saved Kaidan on Mars. That should have been the end of it, right? But now Kaidan's back and he's gunning for Shepard's heart. There's only one thing a former vigilante can do. Garrus POV no-longer-a-oneshot. Shenko ME, Shakarian ME2. Rated for language.

Pigenelle tries her very best at everything she touches. It's not her fault that most of her attempts end in disaster. So, when she's dragged from her home and handed the fate of Ferelden, it's no surprise that things don't always go according to plan. Slightly AU.

Shepard isn't quite the stable commander Joker remembers, and he's surprised to be the one helping her pick up the pieces. Follows the events of ME2, focusing on non-game scenes. NEW chapter: Epilogue.

When Shepard left, Kaidan Alenko watched as the world didn't stop. It did not wait for a new hero, but went on without one. Yet all is not lost. Some things even death can not stop - can only delay it a while. ME2 Shenko. Serving Under Shepard sequel -AU-

The public persona of Commander Shepard is a myth: unbreakable, undeniable, unstoppable. In truth, she's a human being who needs someone, just as much as the galaxy needs her. Jeff "Joker" Moreau has confidence in his flying skills, and little else. Can these two emotionally-impaired soldiers find happiness with one another? *Cover art used with permission of blackdragon21*

There was a line in one of her many psych evals about an impressive ability to compartmentalize. She supposed the psychologist hadn't been talking about her ability to dress an amputation in the field in under thirty seconds. Mass Effect 2

Ceridwen Cousland was rescued by Duncan and brought to Ostergar to join the Grey Wardens. Unfortunately the last thing Ceri remembers is playing Dragon Age on her PS3. A slightly twisted re-telling of the Human Noble Origin.

Kaidan had always known that life with Shepard wouldn't be easy. But when her mental health deteriorates after the war's end, he discovers that loving her is the easy bit. Talking her into doing something she doesn't want to do is far harder. Post-ME3.

A continuation of my Shepard's Mass Effect tale with a tweaked ending to the series, chronicling the aftermath of the battle for Earth, the fate of the galaxy, and the stories of Commander Shepard and her crew. Spoiler warning applies.

Set between ME2-ME3. With the galaxy at stake, Shepard is determined to succeed no matter what lines she may cross. But when Kaidan is tasked to bring her in to the Council they're both reminded that the more things change, the more they stay the same.

3 months after Shepard woke in a pile of rubble as Anderson destroyed the Reapers, she is still plagued by violent nightmares of her indoctrination. But Kaidan can't think of anywhere else he'd rather be than with her. -Follows the Indoctrination Theory-

A sequel to "Escaping the Past", this story takes place during ME2 as Kaidan deals with Shepard's death and resurrection, then follows her adventure through rumor and secret communications. Short,, since there isn't lots of ME2 Kaidan action. Really just a bridge between the two big stories. Followed by "Creating the Future."

Shepard is dealing with life after her "death", what that means between her and Kaidan, while finding salvation for herself, and maybe their relationship, through the most unlikely of sources. The love of a Drell Assassin.

This story takes place after the events of Mass Effect 2, Anderson is having a 'Celebration' for Shepard's defeat of the Collector Base. But not everything is fun and games when she bumps into Kaidan and some other unexpected events. Bio-ware Owns all

I seriously think Mass Effect 2's infamous Horizons moment was ALL A PLOT! To keep it canon, this is my take on Cerberus' shenanigans. Follows ME2 storyline with flashbacks to earlier times. Bioware owns all. This is part 3 of 'Valkyrie' Shepard's tale.

Sequel to 'Black and White'. After seeing Shepard get drunk yet again, Zaeed muses over what is wrong with her and how he can fix it. The question is, why does he even care? More than slightly Zaeed/FemShep

ME2 Practically being a zombie isn't great for your mental health, you have to have someone to lean on, someone to confide in. It's even worse when the fate of the galaxy's resting on your shoulders. FShep x Joker

Commander Shepard isn't one to be confused. However, after the events on the remote colony of Horizon, she has no choice but to accept the things she does not want to face, and have the courage to start life anew. Pairing: F!Shep x Joker

The crew of the Normandy conspires to take their workaholic commander out for a night on the town, and discovers a side of Shepard they never expected. The only survivor of Mindoir and Hero of the Skyllian Blitz also can't dance. Rated M for language.

She came to face-down in the reactor core of hostile research lab in an enemy system on an asteroid hurtling towards certain destruction. The realization that this was pretty much par for the course provided her with little in the way of comfort or encouragement.

Falling in love is easy, it's staying together that's hard. Add to that the threat of galactic extinction, and there's really no time for romance. But for Commander Shepard there is just one exception. My version of the Shenko romance story from ME1-ME2.

AU. Shenko. Shepard and Alenko meet on Horizon. Shepard is falling apart. Alenko is under orders to get on the Normandy and find out what she's up to. It's going to be their worst assignment yet. T for language & innuendo. Spoilers: all DLC, past Arrival.

Kaidan figured out where he went wrong with Shepard, and now that she's back from Omega 4, he might finally have a chance to tell her so. Shepard's Loyalty Mission series conclusion, preceded by "Justified," "Demigod," "Loyalty," and "Full Disclosure."

Kaidan once again becomes a part of Shepard's team. But the last time they saw each other, he broke her heart. Has she forgiven him or has she moved on? The newest human Spectre dares to find out. FemShep/Kaidan oneshot. Probably not canon.

A closer look at the original dialogue on Horizon between Kaidan Alenko and female Shepard - assuming they fell in love in ME1. Rated T for weak language and *very* subtle allusions to adult situations.

Sequel to "Just What the Doctor Ordered". Joker finds himself in the tricky predicament of having fallen in love with his Commander, wondering if she reciprocates or if she's only interested in his 'massage therapy'. Kink Meme Fill

Shepard is always having trouble with her shoulders aching, so she turns to Joker for some advice on physio therapy. When he mentions massage and she insists they have a session, things get a little more intimate than she planned. Kink meme request.

Kaidan might not be a part of Shepard's crew anymore, but by staying in touch with Joker, he's kept updated on how she's doing. Sequel to "Justified," "Demigod," and "Loyalty;" "Shepard's Loyalty Mission" part 4; Shenko.

Joker was more observant than he let on, and he knew Shepard was crazy for thinking she was completely done with Kaidan Alenko. Sequel to "Justified" and "Demigod;" "Shepard's Loyalty Mission" part 3; Shenko.

Alternate Miranda/Alistair universe. Miranda did not become a grey warden, but was instead captured and imprisoned by Howe. She is rescued by Alistair and Alim, the last two grey wardens in Ferelden, near the end of the blight. Rated M for mature themes.

Four years after the Blight. Miranda and Alistair deal with challenges to their throne and their relationship. Rated M for later chapters. Politics and Intrigue and other fun stuff, but starts with a fair bit of angst and sadness - you are warned!

"There is a dead darkspawn on the hood of my car." How one modern man deals with his sudden appearance in Ferelden. Rated T for strong language, violence, and sexual situations. OCs plus the entire ragtag DA:O team.

The SGC is playing with some of the Ancient tech that happens to be laying around. Surprise! Chapter 18 is up; my next update goal is Independence Day (but no promises)! If you have some ideas about where this should go feel free to pass them on. O'Neill, Hammond, Merrill, Duncan, Cailan, Daveth, Jory, Flemeth, and OCs. So far. Rated 'T' for language.

Shepard survives the Reaper War, but the Normandy is lost. She works to control her emotions and find them before it's too late. One shot for now, but I may continue it if there is interest. Please review and let me know your thoughts.

Jeff has a weird dream. Well, weirder than usual. This is a definite one-shot inspired by KylaBosch's First Impressions. Please check it out if you get the chance. For those interested, is an AU Middle of Nowhere ficlet, but if you read past the line break it's semi-canon. Enjoy!

This is a quick one-shot that takes place after Shepard and Kaidan meet for dinner on the Citadel. My husband dared me to write a sex scene…so here it is, my first ever. FLUFF and SEX WARNING! Rated M.
